Middle name for Penelope Richardson

We can't decide on a middle name for Penelope Richardson. I think keeping it short to balance out the two longer names would sound the best. I really like "Rae" or "Rose", but don't know whether it goes with our surname.

First thought was Jane. Then Even shortened Penny Jane works well.

Fabulous name! I thought of Rose too - needs to be 1 syllable
Rose
Kate
Claire
Jean

Interesting suggestions! Anne was my Mum's middle name. And Mary is my mother-in-laws name

I think Rose is one of those middle names that adds to almost anything.

Agree with one syllable given the multi-syllable first and last names.

Both are good but like Rose best!
